A system for determining a tire change status in a vehicle is provided. The system includes at least one processing device and a storage device. The at least one processing device may be arranged to: calculate a value of at least one reference parameter which may be used in indirect tire pressure monitoring; store the calculated value of said at least one reference parameter in the storage device; retrieve a previously stored value of said at least one reference parameter from the storage device; determine a similarity parameter based on a similarity between the calculated value and the previously stored value of said at least one reference parameter; and determine a tire change status, indicating whether or not the tires have been re-filled or replaced, by comparing said similarity parameter with a threshold.

Determining a tire change status in a vehicle

This invention concerns a system comprising processors () arranged so as to receive and process data arriving at the system and containing time-indicating means () operatively connected to said processors and arranged so as to furnish time data to the processors for time-marking of the data. The time-indicating means () include a hardware clock arranged so as to generate a clock signal, and further arranged so as to receive second time data from at least one additional time reference and modify the clock signal from the hardware clock using the second time data in order to generate the first time data. The time-indicating means () are arranged so as to add to the clock signal, during the generation of the first time data, a compensation signal (&#x3b4;&#x3c4;i) based on said second time data. The invention also concerns a method for time-marking data.
